Mozilla Corporation unveiled the "latest and greatest" version of its popular web-browser, Mozilla Firefox 4. With this release, the open-source browser achieves all essential features common with the latest generation of web-browsers that include Google Chrome 10+ and Microsoft Internet Explorer 9, which are: HTML5 support, and GPU-accelerated webpage drawing. Apart from being a lot faster than Firefox 3.6, the new browser sports a completely new user interface that shifts tabs to the titlebar, shifts menus to a "Firefox" button, and consolidates the address bar, search bar, and navigation buttons into a single line, which it refers to as the "Awesome Bar". Apart from a new bookmark manager, Firefox lets you group tabs to streamline multitasking on the browser. Mozilla Firefox 4 will be available to a variety of platforms.

Firefox is nowadays the second slowest browser... Although the add-on support is great and something I would like to see on Chrome in the future. Chrome is so fast and convenient to use though so that's what I'm using.

yeah i use both and they both have given me a "hey were sorry" message. my prob is firefox nazis reporting otherwise when i use it everyday i think the feild is much more "level" than most report it to be. The addons in firefox are great but the only addons i use are to make it more like my opera.

should have intergrated that google search with the URL Bar imo, just as Chrome has it. im fairly certain IE has done it.

What Firefox has is far better anyway. Keywords are awesome and once you start using them you'll never use search field anymore. Plus they can be synced along with bookmarks. This way you have keywords on all computers and searching becomes pure pleasure.

Opera remains for me the browser of choice, since I can do everything inside it, but I still need IE and Mozilla to quick test sites I work on if they look OK. CS Live has now BrowserLab for this, but I don't really like it, it's slow and not very streamlined.
